WARNING

seat on the front passenger's seat, the front passenger's airbag
must be deactivated beforehand – otherwise this can result in
potentially fatal injuries to the child.
• If you have deactivated the front passenger's airbag, reactivate
it as soon as the child seat is no longer needed so that the airbag
can continue to give the required protection.
• It is the driver's responsibility to ensure that the key-operated
switch is set to the correct position.
